Nature Day on
Its Way
An annual favorite is coming soon. Darke County Parks is
celebrating Earth Day week once again with Nature Day! Shawnee
Prairie Preserve will be buzzing with activities on Saturday, April 25
from 10a-3p. A celebration of nature will take place throughout the
day. Families are encouraged to plan to spend most of the day
exploring each station. Children will be given a passport that
may be stamped at the completion of each activity station. Upon
completing all stations, an award will be given to the participant.
Hands-on stations planned for the day include; honeybees, rocks,
wildflowers, wetlands, mud, nature literature and more!
At noon, a concert by Chris Rowlands, Naturalist Educator and Musician,
will be located on the stage. The Friends of Darke County Park
will be offering a hot dog lunch for a donation. In addition to
all of the wonderful family hands-on exploration, the Native Plant Sale
will also be occurring beginning at 10am until sold out. For more
information, please contact the Nature Center at 937-548-0165.
